# Salesforce Development Environment

Visual Studio Code is a powerful source code editor that along with the Salesforce Extension Pack, gives you a comprehensive infrastructure for Salesforce development.

We recommend that you learn more about available features in Visual Studio Code by visiting the Visual Studio Code [documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs). Then come back here to learn about the features specific to Salesforce development. You’ll see that features like the Org Browser, and easy access to commands via the command palette makes Salesforce development a breeze!
